What she had omitted was that she would not allow her precious daughter to marry someone like Cooper who was a bastard son without prestige.Her daughter must be wed to a proper, wealthy family!The only one who should marry Cooper was Kelsey.There was no way Josephine would marry him!“Is she now? That’s strange, I remember seeing her going on a date with Cooper the other time.” Kelsey stated candidly.Everyone in the living room was stunned with silence upon hearing this.The elders of the Lyons immediately cast a suspicious look at Cooper.Megan frowned with disgust and started telling off Kelsey, “What kind of nonsense are you going about? You must have got the wrong person!”Why would her darling daughter go out with someone like Cooper of all people?Kelsey took her time recalling the tale. “I remember they were at the seaside manor together. It wasn’t just me, there were many other people present who saw them too. Or are you suggesting that everyone was mistaken as wel

Kelsey sneaked into her father's study.Where were her documents hidden?She searched every corner of the study.Finally, she found her documents tucked inside a cabinet under the desk.Alright, mission complete!Kelsey beamed with excitement.She quickly took the documents and hid it carefully before returning to meet Tyler.Unexpectedly, she was caught red-handed by Josephine as soon as she stepped out of the study.“Sis, what were you doing in Dad's study?” Josephine asked suspiciously. She had woken up late today and happened to chance into her.Kelsey felt herself stiffening up immediately. She made up an excuse on the spot. “I just went inside to look for a book.”Josephine was curious. “What book?”A look flickered in Kelsey’s eyes. “It was this book from a long time ago, I thought it would be inside Dad's study but it turns out it wasn’t…”Josephine was still skeptical. “Does Dad put your books inside his study?”She reckoned that Kelsey had just sneaked inside the

Cooper would likely not associate himself with Josephine ever again.However, asking for her to admit having feelings for Cooper was such a tall order.If she had admitted it, Kelsey would seize the chance to persuade her parents to let the two become engaged.“Josephine can't possibly be interested in Cooper! She was only regarding him as her future brother-in-law…” Megan noticed the shifting tides and quickly stepped into the explanation.Kelsey remarked with scorn, “Is her idea of getting along with her future brother-in-law to go on private dates with him?”Megan hastily cried out, “It had to be a misunderstanding…”Kelsey sneered sarcastically. “Are you saying that Josephine going on a date with her future brother-in-law was all just a misunderstanding?”“I…” Megan cringed. She hardly knew how to defend her stance.Kelsey suggested coyly, “I think Josephine and Cooper make a perfect match, why don’t we grant them their wish? Who knows how long they have been keeping their

“Tyler, I got it! I got my documents!”Kelsey cheerily burrowed into the car and eagerly showed Tyler the documents she managed to obtain.A gentle look stirred in Tyler’s eyes as he reached over and took her in his arms.Kelsey looked up at him with a confused expression. “Are we still going to get engaged?”Tyler looked down and stared at her thoughtfully. “Are you sure about wanting to get engaged with me? Getting married is a big deal, there is no way you can change your mind after you go through with this.”Kelsey nodded without hesitation. “Sure!”She was sure she would never regret it.As soon as she had declared her commitment, Tyler drew himself toward her and planted a passionate kiss against her lips.Kelsey nearly had her breath drawn away.A doting look shone in Tyler’s eyes. “Let's go, we’re getting engaged!”He started the car and drove to the church.Kelsey could feel herself getting more giddy than ever.After they arrived at the church, they went through t

Kelsey finally felt an immense wave of relief upon hearing this.Since Tyler had told her that there was nothing going on between him and Zara, she would believe him.Then, she looked at him affectionately. “Are we going somewhere to continue our date now?”Tyler gently patted her head. “I’m taking you back to my house.”“We’re going home?”Kelsey did a double take.They had finally gotten engaged. Should they not be celebrating it somewhere?Tyler noticed her disappointment and quickly coaxed her in a gentle, assuring tone. “There’s something I need to attend to in the office. Let me take you home to get some rest first, then we’ll go out for dinner together tonight.”Kelsey reluctantly nodded upon hearing this.“Alright, you need to get to work, it’s important!”Since she was engaged to him, she had to learn to be understanding and accommodating.Soon, Tyler drove back to the villa.“I’ll be off now, see you tonight!"Kelsey waved goodbye to him and prepared to step out

Kelsey felt emotional the moment she stepped into Tyler’s house.This time, her status was different. She could now live here as the official Mrs. Lang.She trotted around the spacious and luxurious decorated living room.Today, she was in a particularly good mood.She reached for her phone and proceeded to video call Yvonne.“Kelsey, why didn't you come home last night? Where have you been? Are you okay?”Yvonne hurled a barrage of questions the moment she answered the call.Kelsey smiled radiantly. “Don't worry, Yvonne, I'm fine! I’m… I’m at Tyler's place right now!”Yvonne immediately understood what she was implying the moment she heard this.“So you’re finally with Tyler now? Sounds like he is very satisfied with the food you made for him.”Yesterday, Kelsey got up first thing in the morning to prepare a complete lunch set to bring to Tyler’s office for him to taste.She had spent the last week learning to cook from Yvonne.It seemed like her effort was not in vain.H

They were all from Tyler.Kelsey went through each message.“Kelsey, something urgent came up and I have to fly overseas.”“I am very sorry for not spending time with you on our wedding night. I will make up for it when I return!”“I am about to board my flight, you can call your friend and ask her to keep you company.”“Make sure you sleep early, goodnight!”The text Tyler sent about him boarding the plane was from about four hours ago.It was around the time when she was dozing on the couch. She never picked up his calls nor answered his messages.She wondered if his flight had landed yet.She hesitated for a moment but ultimately decided to video call Tyler.She wanted to assure him that she was safe at home.Unexpectedly, Tyler answered the call almost immediately.He had already gotten off the plane and had gone to the hotel.The moment he saw Kelsey on his screen, a doting look filled his eyes.He would give anything to fly back home right now and take Kelsey in his

Kelsey continued trying to contact Tyler.She had called him more than twenty times in a row by this point but he still would not pick up.The same went for the video calls.It seemed like she had truly lost contact with Tyler who was in another country.She grew increasingly restless.Although it was already past midnight, she hardly felt the urge to sleep.She stayed up because she was too worried about Tyler.She did not know how to find out about what had happened to him.Then, she suddenly thought of someone who could help her.Tyler's assistant, Shawn.He had always brought Shawn with him on every business trip.The only problem was that Kelsey did not have Shawn’s contact information.Her only resort was to go to the Lang Group in person to ask for it.However, it was already midnight. There were not going to be any employees at the building.She would at least have to wait until tomorrow morning.With this in mind, she paced back and forth anxiously in the living

Kelsey and Rosette discussed the specifics of auditioning for Adrienne’s new film’s costume design role.As the time neared noon, Kelsey glanced at her phone. Tyler had not replied to her text message. It was nearly time for Susan’s birthday celebration at St. Gill’s. Kelsey decided to go ahead to St. Gill’s. While on the way, she gave Charlie a call to inform that Tyler would not be available for the celebration. Charlie’s voice reflected his disappointment. “What’s this? Why can’t Tyler make it?” Kelsey bit the bullet and explained, “I haven’t been able to reach him.” “I thought Tyler adored you. Why couldn’t you get in touch with him? Did you upset him?” Charlie grilled her. Kelsey refuted, “Things have been going well for us, thanks for asking. He has an emergency today.” Her bond with Tyler could not be stronger. Heck, they nearly went all the way this morning. The nerve of her father to put her down. Charlie was furious. “I knew I couldn’t count on you.” He

Kelsey frowned. “What are you up to now?” She doubted Charlie was so nice to want the family to be together for her grandmother, Susan’s birthday. It was probably an excuse to get close to Tyler. Since Charlie got together with Megan, Kelsey could count on her finger the number of times he had been to the nursing home to visit Susan. Kelsey could not remember the last time Charlie celebrated Susan’s birthday. Charlie could not even remember Susan’s birthdate. Yet, Charlie was so kind to throw her a party. Kelsey could only suspect that Charlie had ulterior motives. “How can you say that about me, Kelsey? I’m your father. Am I wrong to throw your grandmother a birthday party?” Charlie reprimanded. Kelsey was skeptical. “You’re not wrong, but…” It was uncertain whether he had Susan’s interest at heart. “But what?” Charlie asked. He started blaming himself. “I know that I listened to Megan and neglected you and Mom. I’ve gotten rid of her. Now, I just want to be a go

With a predatory glint in his eyes, Tyler pressed his lips against Kelsey’s.“I’ll take your silence as your consent.” “Hang on!” Kelsey pushed him away. She meant business since it was about his sleepwalking last night. “I have a question.” “What is it?” Tyler asked in a raspy voice, his lips still lingering across her skin. His hands eagerly pulled her gown off her. “Do you sleepwalk?” Kelsey asked. Tyler paused, his eyes bearing a weight of emotions. Kelsey knew she was right on the money. Tyler had known about his sleepwalking. “Did you know you were sleepwalking last night?” Kelsey said while fixating earnestly on him. She was more concerned about his health. Tyler seemed healthy. Yet, he wandered off in a sleeping state. Judging by Tyler’s response, it was not his first rodeo. Generally speaking, sleepwalking was associated with trauma or unresolved issues. Kelsey suspected that Tyler had been through some kind of trauma, or something in his past wa

Tyler opened his eyes abruptly. Bare and dominant, he loomed above Kelsey while his penetrating gaze looked deep into her soul.Lost in the heat of his kiss, Kelsey opened her eyes in confusion at his sudden pause. She met his profound gaze. Kelsey’s heart skipped a beat. Her breath hitched. She stared at the man towering over her in disbelief, her eyes bulging. Tyler was awake. He examined her, his eyes scouring every inch of her body. Once he was certain that it was Kelsey, Tyler was relieved. “I’m home, babe,” he uttered with a sigh of relief. Feeling assured, he closed his eyes and rested his head on her shoulder. He filled his lungs with her familiar scent. Kelsey was taken aback, but her head gradually cleared. She thought that Tyler would not stop their little bed activity. However, Tyler stayed in the same position for a while. His steady breathing came soon after. He fell asleep. Kelsey was in disbelief. Since he wanted her so badly, Kelsey ass

Worried, Kelsey followed Tyler in case he hurt himself or fell off the stairs. He was not in a conscious state after all. Kelsey would not be so abrupt as to wake him from his sleepwalking. She was aware that waking a sleepwalker could lead to shock or other health problems.Kelsey stuck close behind Tyler and made sure he got up the stairs safely. Tyler returned to their bedroom and lay on the bed. Kelsey drew close for a look. The soft moonlight streamed through the French windows, casting a hazy glow over his defined face.Tyler lay there motionlessly, his eyes closed.Kelsey watched him sleep tenderly. For a moment, she drooled over him. However, she quickly frowned at the smell of alcohol on Tyler. Kelsey went to open the window to let in some airflow, dispersing the fumes of liquor. She then picked out a fresh pair of pajamas from the closet for Tyler.Tyler would need a change of briefs too. However, Kelsey’s cheeks burned when she pulled his brief draw

Kelsey returned to the villa she shared with Tyler. She intended to tell Tyler how her day with her best friend had gone. Charles was somehow caught in the crossfire. Yvonne’s mother-in-law accused her of having an affair with Charles which did a number to his reputation. Kelsey wanted to ask Tyler about his opinion on returning Charles’ favor. Since Charles was Tyler’s childhood friend, Tyler must know him best. However, Tyler had business plans to attend to, so he would not be home for dinner.Kelsey was alone in the upstairs bedroom, occupied with all related matters involving her new business venture. Since Kelsey and Rosette were going to audition to design costumes for Adrienne’s new film, Kelsey felt it was essential to study the genre of the new film and Adrienne’s past fashion choices. Time passed. By the time Kelsey shut her laptop, it was eleven at night. Rising to her feet, she stretched and walked out of the bedroom. Kelsey was on her way downstairs

“I’m sorry, Kelsey. I’m sorry to ruin lunch,” Yvonne murmured. Kelsey put her arm around her shoulder. “Why are you apologizing to me? Charles told me what he needed me for. It’s okay to skip lunch.” She paused and looked at Yvonne, her head tilted. “But Yvonne, you seem to have changed.” “How so?” Yvonne asked with a raised brow. “You’ve become composed and cunning now.” Kelsey said with admiration, “But it’s a good thing. I don’t want you to be Adam and his family’s doormat. You didn’t marry him to be his slave.” Yvonne curled her lips. “I’ve been through a lot, but I’ve learned a lot too. I had to learn from my mistakes.” She used to walk on eggshells around her husband and mother-in-law. She gave them too much leeway, and they walked all over her. In the future, Yvonne would not be so dumb as to let others hurt her again. She needed to stand up for herself. … Kelsey dropped Yvonne back home. Before, Yvonne would cry to Kelsey for hours after Agatha humiliated

“Didn’t you hear what Yvonne said? She’ll go ahead with the divorce. She doesn’t want to stick around until you take everything from her.” Kelsey snapped an angry look at Agatha. “Your son is the one with an affair. Don’t put this on Yvonne. Save your breath for your son. Yvonne is the victim. Who are you to accuse her?” Kelsey could not stand Agatha. Agatha placed herself above others and used Yvonne as a punching bag. Charles tipped the restaurant manager the wink. The restaurant manager led a security team to Agatha. “This is a public place, not your playground. Please leave now.” Agatha was humiliated to be thrown out of the premises. Instead of breaking down and apologizing, Yvonne calmly agreed to the divorce. Agatha did not see it coming. She needed to talk to her son. Clearly, Agatha had to find new ways to keep Yvonne in line. “Hmph! In that case, I should ask your parents if they know about their daughter filing for divorce,” Agatha said. In Agatha’s opi

Agatha’s son, Adam, was the one who had an affair. Yet, Agatha made Adam out to be the victim instead. Yvonne became the wicked woman who cheated on Adam. Kelsey racked her brain to think of ways to prove Yvonne’s innocence. Yvonne broke her silence.“Tell me. What are you trying to achieve?” Agatha’s big fuss was met with Yvonne’s nonchalant reply. For a moment, Agatha was in a daze. In the past, Agatha often berated Yvonne until the latter had no choice but to apologize. Agatha had always kept Yvonne in line through aggressive methods. Yet now, Yvonne asked her what she wanted to do. Instead of having a meltdown, Yvonne carried herself with ease. Agatha narrowed her eyes and said bitterly, “We pride ourselves on our decency. We can’t put up with your cheating. Just finalize the divorce and get out of my family. I don’t want to carry your shame.” She glared at Yvonne in disdain. “Fine.” Yvonne readily agreed. Yvonne understood that Agatha was a pro at throwi
